How We Support
Your Vision
Not every patient can achieve clear, lasting comfort with standard soft lenses. That’s why Austin Optics offers specialty contact lens services in Forest Hills:
- Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) Lenses: Durable lenses that allow oxygen flow, offering sharper vision for high prescriptions and astigmatism.
- Scleral Lenses: Larger lenses that vault over the cornea, ideal for keratoconus, dry eyes, and irregular corneal shapes.
- Toric Hard Contacts: Designed specifically for patients with astigmatism who need stable, precise correction.
- Custom Lens Fittings: Tailored to each eye with topography imaging for maximum comfort and clarity.
Patients often ask
- Are hard contacts better than soft contacts?
- Do hard lenses last longer?
- Are they uncomfortable?
Our team takes time to answer every question, ensuring you feel confident in your choice. With proper care, hard contacts can provide longer-lasting vision correction, clearer optics, and better outcomes for complex prescriptions.
